The Transverse Momentum Dependent Partonic Distributions (TMD-PDFs) and Fragmentation Functions (TMD-FFs) should reveal new properties of the 3-dimensional structure of nucleons and of the quark hadronization process. Many experimental data are now available and much progress has been made in their phenomenological interpretation. A short summary of the situation is presented.

Definitions of orbital angular momentum based on Wigner distributions are used to discuss the connection between the Ji definition of the quark orbital angular momentum and that of Jaffe and Manohar. The difference between these two definitions can be interpreted as the change in the quark orbital angular momentum as it leaves the target in a DIS experiment. The mechanism responsible for that...

Double parton scattering (DPS) is the process in which two distinct pairs of partons hard scatter in an individual proton-proton collision. It can be an important background to single scattering processes suppressed by small or multiple coupling constants (e.g. new physics signals), and can reveal novel information about the proton structure. I review recent developments in the endeavour to...

In a recent work\cite{Sales} we demonstrated an interesting result about the properties of tunneling time in the light front with the help of phase time. The question we may pose is: What do we understand as a tunneling time? Since the quantum system goes across a region within the potential that is forbidden in classical physics, we are interested in knowing how long this system takes to do...
